It’s 2005 all over again…again.
The annual When We Were Young Festival just announced the lineup for the 2025 edition of their nostalgia-core extravaganza set to take place Oct. 18 at the Las Vegas Festival Grounds.
Throwback headliners set to perform include pop-punk pioneers Blink-182 (playing tracks from “Enema Of The State” and “Take Off Your Pants and Jacket”), baroque emo heroes Panic! At The Disco (performing “A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out” in its entirety after disbanding in 2023), chart-topping hitmakers Weezer, riot grrl Avril Lavigne and “Pretty Fly” rockers The Offspring.
All Time Low, Knocked Loose, The Gaslight Anthem, Jack’s Mannequin and Bad Religion are just a few of the other big names on the aughts-tastic bill.
But wait! Like any good ’00s infomercial, there’s still more.
Punk mainstays like The Used, Yellowcard, Simple Plan and Taking Back Sunday are scheduled to rock out at WWWY ’25 as well.
Plus, if you squint hard enough looking at the festival poster, you’ll see The Plain White T’s of “Hey There, Delilah” fame will be there, too.
In total, 53 anti-establishment acts will rock Sin City over the course of the one-day jamboree.
